Edit Reason: grammar
 
I can't imagine a sadder fate then to come of a mind to utterly reject the joy and love of a relationship with someone who wants to nurture a family with you. This, is ultimately, what they are abolishing in the expression of their choice.
I know that many different cultures adopt habits and traditions that restrict the freedom any person, including women, should have... and I suppose the "4B" movement is the pendulum swinging away from the center of the beautiful balance between two people devoted to each other... but it just doesn't seem like a recipe for peace and fulfillment. Only a kind of sterility (no pun intended,) which deprives them of things I have found to be the very essence of living.
Since I am not a woman, and only an American, I guess I will have to wait patiently for someone to tell me exactly what these principles remedy... (the cynic in me says this is a 'spite' movement... but that's probably a hyperbolic reaction.)
Korean society has tangible bias against women... but time changes many things, and I thought there was hope for the misogynists to simply die off... that sounds colder than I want it to... but like the solution to all entrenched oppression traditions... those who embrace it are mortal and will all die eventually. The children might then bring healing and peace... assuming they're taught well by previous generations.
No judgements here...
No celebration either.
